Expressions Mangled!

Tallulahdahling

I have never had this problem before.

I'm working in D/S 4.9.

I was using Amandla for Teen Josie 7​, and I made a few changes to her face - nothing dramatic, and dressed her up and everything, and posed her.  Then I applied a storebought expression.

Her lower lip and tongue suddenly jutted out about three feet, and her upper lip rose to expose her teeth and gums.  Grotesque and disturbing, it was, although I must say that the color of the inside of her mouth matched the color of her jacket perfectly.

Anyhow, I tried another expression​​.  Same grotesqueness, but in a different way.  I tried another and another and another.

Then I changed to a different set of expressions, same horrifying results.

Yes, I tried a few from all four of my expression sets for Gen 3 Female​.  Revoltingly entertaining.

Please, somebody, help me help my poor mangled little girl express herself like a normal person.

And thank you very much.​

Do the expressions work on the base figure? If so I might suspect that the bones need adjusting to the morph in one of the morphs you used - try turning them on and off until you indentify the culprit, and if it's an item from the store (and there are no updates) report it as a bug.

Thank you, Richard. I'll give that a go.

And, yes, the expressions do work on the base figure and other characters.

But some of product morphs which intend for "User making original character shape with mix ,as User  like,,"

vendor not adjust rigs for each morph ..   and it will not  be up-dated even though there are some bug report about same product.

because vendor say,, they can not offer JCM which work for all morph combination include with other product,

then vendor offer just morph shape,, and user need to adjust rigs .

 

But I feel,, actually they can,,. (even though how user mix morphs with other product)  about morphs in the product.

at least,, adjust bone for each morph 100% is useful. even though it is simple linea adustment)

then I hope,, when vendor offer morph, which need adjust rigs by user,,(that means make  ERC (freeze) ,after make new shape with mix morphs)

clear discribe it, in shop guide of the product.

I know this is a problem especially with Teen Josie 6 and 7 characters. Many Expressions deform the lips. I prefer to use only Expressions that were especially made for Josie or make the expressions manually.

I have had to deal with this too, best way is to go into the posing tab with the head selected and re-zero everything that has a value, then you can start clean. I have noticed that many of the "Reset" pose/expression thingies just don't work and re-zeroing the values was the only thing that fixed it.
